[Albion] Simon Jordans Team of The Season: BHAFC

[B-right-on]

Apparently getting banned from all future Palace games and Smellhurst Stadium ban (as an award).

 

[The Optimist]

Is that a subtle dig that he thinks we’ll be thrashed by City and Villa? Otherwise we won’t be in the Europa Conference League

 

[The Fits]

Shouldn't say it too loud but I really like the guy. Like his different POV, his distance from the sycophantic side of the punditry. Says a lot of sensible things.

 

[Bakero]

He loves us, doesn't he?

 

[Neville's Breakfast]

He is a good pundit and I’ve not even listened to that yet. Not afraid to call bullshit on the ex player media gravy train.

Or that we get relegated to that competition from the Europa League.

 

[Nicks]

Him and Keown do not see eye to eye and listening to SJ shoot him down in flames most of the time is a joy to listen too.

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

Edward Izzard was interviewed on TS this afternoon, but I couldn't stomach all the crap that station pumps out to wait for it. Anyone hear what he had to say? (Apart from the Great Expectations gig plug)

I listen to at least part of the programme most days......he's always good value.

It was basically just the gig plug - he wasn't on for long.

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

I've said before, I really like him. He's a breath of fresh air in many ways. He does not seem to have any agenda or bias and generally has views and opinion which make sense and are well thought out even if you might not agree with them. That said I tend to agree with most of what he says.

 

[Solid at the back]

I think he's great. He carries the show. He's the host of a new podcast called Upfront which is quite a good listen too.

Keown is dreadful, gets pelters from SJ and Jim.

I like him. That's a good rant in our favour and a dig at Souness... what's not to like

 

[amexer]

Just so good to listen to someone who is not an ex player but has experience of owning a PL club with problems this brings. Nothing but praise for Brighton. He is clear about problems that we may face with approaches from big clubs. All very well turning down big money from these clubs but little club can do once a player makes up his mind wants to go to a club playing in Champions League

 

[The Optimist]

Or that we get relegated to that competition from the Europa League.

I didn’t know that was a thing. Is it like the Champions League, i.e. top 2 into the knockout stages, 3rd into competition below and 4th knocked out completely?

 

[The Optimist]

Keown often spouts nonsense doesn’t he? I’m sure it was Keown who once said “you don’t see that very often” when Aguero got subbed off after about 70 minutes and it turned out it happened in something like 8 of his last 10 appearances.

 

[Wozza]

Keown often spouts nonsense doesn’t he?

Yep.

He seem to have softened his view on Albion - on the bit I heard this morning, at least. Even mentioned his time at the Goldstone.

Last week he HATED us - because we'd played his beloved Arsenal off the park. Twat.

Yes, it also takes in early eliminations from the Champions League into the second qualifying round.

No, it seems to be sincere. He's been getting closer and closer in terms of loving us for a while. Its from the business point of view as much as anything else. He won't walk safely in Croydon now I bet!

that's how I have it too
